# --description--

Because your function was no longer using the parameter, changing the value passed in the call did not affect it.

Go ahead and remove the `test` declaration from your `padRow` function. Also, remove the `return` statement, so your function is empty again.

# --hints--

Your `padRow` function should not have a `test` variable.

```js
assert.notMatch(padRow.toString(), /test/);
```

Your `padRow` function should not return a value.

```js
assert.notMatch(padRow.toString(), /return/);
```

# --seed--

## --seed-contents--

```js
const character = "#";
const count = 8;
const rows = [];

--fcc-editable-region--
function padRow() {
  const test = "Testing";
  return test;
}
const call = padRow();
console.log(call);
--fcc-editable-region--

for (let i = 0; i < count; i = i + 1) {
  rows.push(character.repeat(i + 1))
}

let result = ""

for (const row of rows) {
  result = result + "\n" + row;
}

console.log(result);
```
